Y. $:: : GAY N05é IN THé NOSEGAY T HE other day someone sent me a copy of a publication named "Floyd Clymer's Motor Scrap- book," devoted to reprints of automo- bile ad vertisemen ts appearing between 1890 and 1920 I lost myself in it com- pletely, weeping softly over pictures of makes of cars I had forgotten ever existed but which once I had proudly recognized at sight. I was mooning over Stanley Steamers, tGasmobiles, Max- wells, Reos, Abbott-Detroits, Pope- Hartfords, Metzes, Marmons, Apper- sons, Mitchells, and Croxton-Keatons when I was brought up short by a liquor ad-and don't ask me how it got there -reprinted from a Munsey's Magazine of 1906. This advertisement started with a bold-face line, "A BOTTLE OF vVHISKEY FREE!," and went on to state that any w'hiskey under fifteen years of age was unfit to drink and even dangerous. It offered four bottles (full quarts) of "Old Fitzgerald, an Old- Fashioned Sour Mash Whiskey, Dis- tilled in Tubs by Hand, carrying charges prepaid," for five dollars. Into the bar- gain, in case you didn't believe the ad, they would send you free an individual bottle of the whiskey, or of Martini, Manhattan, Gin, Vermouth, Brandy, oJ: tJ ap Cocktail. I forgot all about automobiles, car- ried away by the poignant regret that I hadn't reached the prime of life in an era when you could get four full quarts of over-fifteen-year-old whiskey for five dollars and been happily dead and buried before the advent of Cuban gin and fifty-three-cent cocktails. While still in this frame of mind, I ran across, in the apartment of a friend who considers himself a super-connois- seur of mixed drinks, a little volume called "l erry Thomas' Bar-Tenders' Guide." (Mr. Thomas had been Prin- cipal Bar-Tender at the Metropolitan Hotel, New York, and the Planters' House, St. Louis.) It was first published in 1862, this edition copyright 1887, and it turned out to be just the sort of escape literature that my troubled spirit and palate required. The tone of the little book is set in the preface, which remarks that "Fruit, of course, must not be handled but picked up with a silver [my italics] spoon Of fork" and "whiskey should be kept di- rectly on ice! [my exclamation point] ." Y ou will not find the Martini Cock- .. tail listed among the hundreds of recipes. You will, however, find the Martinez, with practically the same ingredients. This upsets the often-heard theory that
